North Korean leader Kim Jong Un apparently wipes tears and looks emotional in a video from a recent event where he called for efforts to tackle the country's falling birth rates and urged women to have more children.

In the video, which is going viral on social media, he can be seen looking down and wiping away tears.

"Preventing a decline in birth rates and good childcare are all of our housekeeping duties we need to handle while working with mothers," Kim was quoted as saying by the news agency Reuters at the event for mothers in Pyongyang on Sunday.
